LNB

Hello....

I just got a second LNBF model: 785L and I found some info on it saying it
HAS to have 2 receivers hook up at the same time. Can anyone else confirm
this?

My trick to bypass this is to get a Y splitter and connect to it. There is
no point in me digging out my old DSS unit.

And to use this LNB, do I need a bigger dish? Currently, I'm still on the
old 18" dish.

Thank you for your time...

a y splitter will only screw up your receiver, IMHO. you are going to get
the r.f. coming down the coax to the receiver from both lnb's if you do
that. let me know if it actually works.
